5. What's the difference between all these themes?

Linkis themes have a set of various options you get when customizing web pages : links to your social networks, likes, polls, views, Promo block, etc. Here you can find a short description of all themes and see how your customized page will look with a certain one.

Briefly, Vertical and Horizontal themes both designed to promote yourself or your project (a short bio, a photo, links to social networks).

Sidebar theme is mostly about increasing users’ engagement (Like, Share and Retweet buttons). For the Sidebar theme we activated a RT button and a special pop-up, which reminds your followers to make a retweet for you. It works when you simply add a #RT hashtag to your tweet.

Simple Light and Social White are the themes you can use to activate polls for your visitors. Go to your settings and think on a question you want to ask.

6. What is Convey and why do I need it?

Convey by Linkis is a great opportunity to keep your Twitter alive when you’re offline. Enabling this option, you give us permission to daily post a tweet with the most popular link from your feed on your behalf. Remind your followers about yourself while having a vacation far away from Twitter.

7. I'd like to post some of my links without customization.

If you add #NLN (#nln) hashtag to your tweet, we won't customize the link. It will stay untouched and original.

You can also use a blacklist in your account settings to share particular websites with original links.

8. I found my account and links blocked. What happened?

We have very strict rules to the content shared through Linkis. If your account and/or customized links was blocked or removed, it means you violated our Terms of Use.
